During bipolar electrosurgical coagulation an unwanted sticking
effect can occur when the forceps’ tips adhere to the tissue. This
carries a risk of inadvertent tearing open of coagulated vessels. In
addition, tissue sticking to the forceps adversely affects the continued coagulation. Sticking is markedly reduced with the automatic power regulation provided by the ERBE VIO unit technology
and the use of Soft Coagulation with AUTO STOP. The new PREMIUM forceps and irrigation forceps additionally reduce sticking.
The forceps are available in addition to the standard models (s.
catalogue of electrosurgical accessories).
The ERBE bipolar forceps are available in various lengths and
shapes for different surgical and anatomical requirements.

The reusable PREMIUM forceps make it easy to coagulate tissue. Sticking effects on the tips of the forceps are reduced to a minimum.
The trick lies in a special alloy with high temperature conductivity to
draw the heat away from the forcep tip and to prevent overheating.
Heat accumulation and the resulting adhesion of coagulate is significantly reduced. The abraded and matt-finished surface of the forceps’

tips allows tissue and vessels to be grasped safely. At the same time
potential light reflections are reduced, improving the visibility at the
operating site when working under a microscope.
The new forceps are available in all popular shapes and sizes and can
be used in any surgical discipline.

The external diameter of the irrigation
connection is 3 mm. It can be connected to all convention gravity infusion
systems
The irrigation outlet is located
on one of the branch arms of the
forceps
The irrigation channel passes through the lower part of the forceps
ending in an outlet in one of the branch arms. Irrigation with an NaCl
solution has several positive effects:
Effective coagulation
No damage or tearing of the coagulated vessels
after coagulation
Even coagulation with constant power output
NaCl solution optimizes the electrical contact

The forceps can be disinfected in the thermodisinfector at a
temperature of 95°C or in the autoclave at a temperature of 138°C.
85100-142
Due to these advantages the surgical procedure can be carried out in a
shorter period of time as the instrument rarely requires cleaning intraoperatively. The irrigation solution is connected to a standard infusion
apparatus with an adjustable drip rate via the cylindrical clip.
